This may be a dumb question, but do these things do damage or do they just leave sandy messy everywhere? That’s an incredible picture!

The dust is super fine like corn flour and it can be deadly for people with asthma or lung problems. Gets into your eyes ears and nose and hair. Hard to breath or see in traffic so road accidents. Other then that no real damage!

Thank you! That makes a lot of sense about the problems the sand could cause for some. I appreciate your answer!
